What does it mean if a system of linear equations has infinitely many solutions?

Back

It means that the equations represent the same line, and any point on that line is a solution.

How can you determine if a system of linear equations has no solution?

Back

If the lines represented by the equations are parallel, they will never intersect, indicating no solution.

What is the meaning of the ordered pair (x, y) in the context of linear equations?

Back

It represents a point on the Cartesian plane, where x is the horizontal coordinate and y is the vertical coordinate.
